Gift List

Yesterday we went to Debenhams to set up our wedding list. I thought this would be a fairly easy task, just go round and scan everything I would like to own! I actually found it fairly difficult, and I don't think Adam found it much easier! I'm not going to go on about it too much, I just found it quite hard to decide if we needed/just wanted stuff because we could add it to the list easily! Anyway, it took us a good 2 hours of walking round one floor of the shop, but at least its done now!

We also ordered our wedding rings. We ordered our cake too earlier in the week so I do feel like we're getting there on the organisation front. The only thing that I'm a little worried about is the fireworks. We would really like to have some, as we are getting married on bonfire night, but just for that reason all the proffessional companies charge massive premiums, and will only do your fireworks if they can fit you around other displays they might be doing in the area! You can buy single ignition boxes of fireworks which go off for quite a while, so it looks like we might be going down that route and try to find someone sensible enough to set it off for us! This also means we will have to look into insurance for them, as the pros come with their own insurance. Oh well, I'm sure we'll get there sooner or later.

We went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory today, which I thought was very good, and it even made me giggle out loud a few times. There's not actually many things which will make me laugh out loud while watching them, so it must have been alright!

Planning on cooking our first proper roast tonight, after we picked up a joint of beef in budgens for £2 reduced from £8! Should be able to make a few sandwiches with it afterwards too!!

Oh, and we won the pub quiz again last thursday, thats a 100% record now, and £40 worth of vouchers. Think we might all go out for a meal with it soon!
